Rex Burkhead Will Be Touchdown Dependent Option For Super Bowl

Wednesday, January 31, 5:02 PM

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead will be a sleeper red zone target for the Patriots this Sunday when they face the Eagles in the Super Bowl. Burkhead will have a tough test going up against an Eagles defense that allowed the second fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. But Burkhead, when healthy, certainly had a nose for the end zone this season. Burkhead totaled eight touchdowns during the regular season, three of those being receiving scores. He may see less than 10 touches in the game but will be a threat to catch and score on a 4-yard check-down pass in the red zone. He amassed only 514 yards from scrimmage but makes his limited opportunities count. Burkhead will be touchdown or bust from a fantasy perspective for this Sunday's Super Bowl.
